Photographical Tour
L.N. Treks offer photographic tours in the Himalayan Hills and Terai Flatland – these are two of the best places on Earth to capture one- off images. The scenery is breathtaking and the population is diverse and full of tradition.
Nepal is also a country of contrasts. Snowy, majestic peaks of the Himalayas stand next to green, rugged foothills. Cows and buffalo stand outside cybercafés and everyday farming life contrasts with vibrant religious celebrations such as the Festivals of Light and Colour. The landscape changes with the seasons. Trees and rhododendron fields bloom in the spring and in summer, rice is planted on the terraces and vegetation is lush. The autumn and winter bring clear skies, heavy snow on mountains and golden brown harvests.
Our Photographic Tour takes you close to the beautiful Annapurna range. There are 4-5 hours of easy walking each day, which includes time to stop to take photos and have tea breaks. The itinerary can be adjusted to suit your own personal preferences and fitness levels.
For photographic opportunities in the Terai, we can tailor-make a trek to suit your needs. Please contact us at lntrekspokara@gmail.com for further information.
